It isn't a problem. I'm already playing around with two areas, a Third isn't a problem for me. You can have your guy continue on his quest to the tower, or I can redirect him to Redcliffe or Denerim. It isn't a problem because I really don't want your guy chilling somewhere until someone comes a long. That would be more of a problem for me.

Thanks.

I had a similar event. I couldn't remember where I parked and I ended up on the other side of campus... Which someone though it would be funny to stick on the side of a hill.

No I don't think you get it, it would be physically impossible to make two sets of ringmail in five hours. Especially in a medieval setting. If you're really determined to have him foist armor on them you could have it so he had some with him for another project. Also it was kind of a dick move jumping ahead in time before Laila and Amir could even reply to Vovin.

I'm gonna side with Berry on this one. Timeskipping without consent is a little...godmod-y.

To be honest, I'm kind of losing interest in this RP. BL's a pretty chill GM, which is awesome, but I personally prefer more focus on character interaction and development in this type of forum-based RP. Given that it's supposed to be based off of Dragon Age, which is a series all about character interaction and development, I kind of assumed that would be the point. Sorry.:/

That's up to you to create character interaction and development, not me. I'm not going to micro-manage everyone's cases. I'm going to be present with my characters in interaction, and move the story as little as I can towards a direction while it is going to be up to the rest of you to develop your characters. The reason why I'm so chill in this is because this isn't everyone's first rodeo. I don't need to be commanding in this.

Now I've given you a chance to rest and interact with other characters and people. Character development and interaction is going to have a chance to get momentum here, but the plan was to have it happen after the battle of Redcliffe, that's where I have it planned to really take off. You didn't dive into character development and interaction within the first five minutes of the game. It all took after the battle of Ostagar for things to really be moving.

All of that movement though depends solely on the movement of the plot, which wasn't really happening. A bar got burned down, and then everyone was going to go do what afterwards? This is where I stepped in to push it towards a path that would go along with the plot, so development could take place.

I opened this time up because you wanted sometime of character interaction and development that didn't involve whacking each other. Now here is your chance, and you are backing out? Deena, forgive me if I'm sounding overly aggressive here, because I'm not. But here is your chance, and what more would you like me to do to make this a more enjoyable game?

Guys, I'm serious about this. If any of you have something you want to do or see happen in this RP, send me a PM. I don't like being a GM with an iron fist, I've seen how those can backfire and destroy a game. This is everyone's RPG. When I'm a GM, I supervise to make sure things are flowing smoothly and everyone is having a good time. I want everyone to be as involved with the story creation and development as possible.

Just give us some time and a few GM controlled NPCs to interact with, that should get things rolling in the character development department. My suggestion is for you to have a few NPCs accompany the group, that way you can keep conversations going yourself through the use of your NPCs.

Zel, might be a good idea to pull that post back, now that I've read it.

In the game, check to see if they want chainmail. There is a good chance that the Teryn, who is now back under my control, would have an armory where you could at least spend a few hours modifying some chainmail or armor pieces for all of you.

That would be a wise course of action that I neglected, as for 'do they want it?' That's not really for him to decide regardless of what he gives. Flowers, horses, coins. They take it or they don't. That was my understanding of gifts atleast.
